Evaporative Cooling for Gas Turbine
Why use Turbine Air Inlet Evaporative Cooling?
Structured Media Technology
- Low initial cost (EUR 20-30 / additional kW)
- Increased Power Output – typically between 8-20 % (Increase in cooling of 0.5-1% /°C for gas turbines, 0.05 % /°C for steam turbines)
- Increased thermal efficiency (reduced heat rate 0.2 % /°C)
- Reduced NOx emissions (0.8-1.5 % /°C cooling)
Fogging Technology
- Very low pressure loss
- Short installation period
- Can be retrofitted to almost any gas turbine
- "Seamless” adaptation to achieve targeted cooling effect
- Average droplet size below 15 micron
